Xhale glass triumphs once again. Every Xhale toy I’ve used has been beautifully crafted and well designed. The Double Plug is no exception; however, I think the name is misleading. You see it's not really a plug, if anything it’s a wand. Nomenclature aside, it is gorgeously smooth glass, no air bubbles or flaws and crystal clear. The gently taper makes for easy insertion, and since it's glass a little lube goes along way.

Since glass is non-reactive and hypo-allergenic it can be used with any lubricant, oil, silicone, water-based, spit, whatever you want to throw at it. I’d have to caution against using spit, since it's a hunk of glass and you will break before it does. Clean up is breeze, everything that might get stuck to it will slide right off; you can use toy wipes, soap and water or toy cleaner. If you’re inclined to sanitize it, you can use 10% bleach solution or boil it for 3 minutes or top rack of the dishwasher.

Now to the meat of the review, putting it to use.

At seven inches, it's a little intimidating. While the five inch circumference (at its widest point) isn't as daunting as say, the moon plug, it's still a hefty stretch. The widest portion of the taper is around four inches circumference, the second bump is four and a half, and the ball ”base” is five. I found this to be more of a warm up toy than an actual plug. It's perfect for slow gentle thrusting to get the muscles relaxed and ready for something larger. Unfortunately it's ridiculously uncomfortable if you try to wear it and then sit. The insertable portion is just too long and the ball is uncomfortable betwixt the cheeks. If it were made of silicone it would be fantastic, but having no give it's just not meant for long term wear.

All in all an excellent hand crafted glass toy and a welcomed addition to my toy box. I'd recommend it for a more intermediate to advanced user; I think the firmness of glass paired with the length of the toy would be more than your average beginner could handle.

As always, have fun, and be safe

one of my most reached for toys! I adore this wand! I still say you shouldn't use it as an actual plug, it's too damn pokey...but it's still a lot of fun!
